• Graduate students in chemistry at 性奴调教 have access to a number of research tools, including:
  • Bruker 400 and 700 MHz NMR spectrometers
  • Bruker-EMX EPR, UV-Vis and FTIR spectrometers
  • Research-grade spectrofluorometers
  • GC-MS and LC-MS
  • Electrochemical analyzers
  • Gas chromatographs
  • A scanning electron micrograph
  • Computational facilities with modern molecular software
  • A Bruker CCD X-ray diffractometer facility
  • In addition to the M.S. in Chemistry, 性奴调教's Department of Chemistry also offers an M.A. in Chemistry.听

Curriculum Overview

The requirements for the thesis-based M.S. degree include:

• A minimum of 24 credits of post-baccalaureate coursework (exclusive of thesis research)
• Six credits of thesis research (颁贬贰惭听5990 Thesis Research)
• A thesis
• A public oral presentation and a private oral examination

Students who hold a bachelor鈥檚 degree and are interested in completing the doctoral program in chemistry can transition into 性奴调教's chemistry Ph.D. program after the master's requirements are completed. A total of 39 credits are required, including 12 credits from dissertation research credits. Students will develop an appropriate coursework track with a mentor that will be approved by the graduate program director or the department chair.

Graduate Handbook

Fieldwork and Research Opportunities

性奴调教's chemistry graduate students are active in the research areas of analytical, physical, synthetic, materials,听environmental and biological chemistry. Research groups regularly publish in top-ranked journals and present at national and international conferences.

Careers

Possible careers for chemistry graduates include pharmaceutical scientist, crime lab analyst, environmental chemist, fuels and materials scientist and academic researcher.

Admission Requirements

Applicants should possess sufficient GPA and TOEFL (if applicable) scores and a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university. Bachelor's degrees usually are in chemistry or biochemistry, although other science majors will be considered.

Admission typically requires a minimum of 18 semester credits (minimum 2.8 GPA) of upper-division undergraduate chemistry courses, including organic chemistry (two semesters), quantitative analysis (one semester) and physical chemistry (two semesters). Students who do not meet these criteria may complete these prerequisites as part of their graduate program, though not for graduate credit.

Students who have not completed equivalent coursework in upper-level undergraduate inorganic chemistry and instrumental analysis will also be required to complete these courses, but they can be taken for departmental graduate credit.

Application Requirements

• Application form听
• Three letters of recommendation
• 搁茅蝉耻尘茅
• Goal statement
• Interview (desired)

Requirements for International Students

All admission policies and requirements for domestic students apply to international students, along with the following:

• 顿别尘辞苍蝉迟谤补迟别听English Language Proficiency
• Proof of financial support must include:
  • A letter of financial support from the person(s) or sponsoring agency funding the time at 性奴调教
  • A letter from the sponsor's bank verifying that the funds are available and will be so for the duration of study at the University
• Academic records, in English translation, of students who have undertaken postsecondary studies outside the United States must include the courses taken and/or lectures attended, practical laboratory work, the maximum and minimum grades attainable, the grades earned or the results of all end-of-term examinations, and any honors or degrees received. WES and ECE transcripts are accepted.

Application Deadlines

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis with priority review given to applications received by Dec. 15 for the fall semester and by Sept. 1 for the spring semester.

Review Process

The Chemistry Graduate Committee votes on whether to admit, deny or waitlist applicants. Applicants on the waitlist may be offered admission in a future semester.

Graduate Chemistry Courses

Non-Course Requirements

A public oral presentation and a private oral examination.

Continuation Standards

Students must maintain a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.00 in all graduate/professional courses.

Roadmaps are recommended semester-by-semester plans of study for programs and assume full-time enrollment听unless otherwise noted. 听

Courses and milestones designated as critical (marked with !) must be completed in the semester listed to ensure a timely graduation. Transfer credit may change the roadmap.

This roadmap should not be used in the place of regular academic advising appointments. All students are encouraged to meet with their advisor/mentor each semester. Requirements, course availability and sequencing are subject to change.

*

Students are required to complete a minimum of 6 credits of Thesis Research. This requirement is typically completed in the second year. The number of credits can vary each semester, but a student cannot register for zero credits of research until the 6 credits have been completed.
